“The cheesecake recipe we used called for a couple tbsps of the moss gel and it really made a big difference in the texture and quality of the dessert. I’ve made raw cheesecakes before, but they were really thick and almost too rich (all nuts). The one I made with irish moss had a lighter, creamier texture but also more structure (it holds itself together)”.
